Sunshine, Starlight | Aryan Simhadri

Part 84

"Where's she ?"

"She'll be here, maybe her train was a little late or something" I turned around and saw xochitl at the entrance of the cafe looking around

"She's here" she spotted the two of us and came to us hugging each of us before sitting down

"Sorry, my train got delayed and it's been a crazy day" she said taking her jacket off

"It's okay, don't sweat it" I smiled at her, we ordered cakes and drinks and just talked for a while getting to know each other better

"The scariest thing about starting new filming is always the people genuinely, like I'm so glad you two are this great"

"I mean honestly, I've never had an acting experience on my own yet" I shrugged in response

"What ? How's that ?"

"Well I started Percy Jackson with Walker, my brother and now this with mo, again thanks to Walker somehow"

"Right, that's so cool let me tell you it's terrifying not knowing anyone"

"It is" Momona agreed nodding

"I think this cast is really cool though, they all seemed great at the chemistry reads"

"I know right ? I'm so excited for this"

"I'm actually jealous of you Belle how do you manage all of this ? You just causally balance two shows, a music career and high school at the same time. People can't manage just high school and you do all of that"

"I think it's fun, well except school"

"Also, if you don't mind me asking what is going on with all that ex-boyfriend drama"

"I'm just gonna do a long story short, we were dating 10 months, he was cheating on me for 7 of them, with my best friend. I found out after the Percy Jackson premiere, paparazzi caught me freaking out at them and like breaking down. Jason, my ex, now is somehow like obsessed with me and he might stalk me honestly, he's a creep, he saw me alone at target, he kissed me, paparazzi, I broke down. I think that sums it up honestly" she looked at me wide eyed nodding "but now I'm with Aryan so it's fine"

"You are ?! I mean I heard the rumours but rumours are crazy"

"Yeah we've been dating for almost 2 months"

"And they're sickeningly adorable"

"That's so cute"

"I've also heard some things about you from Brady,  just saying" her face flushed a little

"What do you mean ? Wait how do you know Brady ?"

"Like childhood friends from Leena"

"Oh great so I'm the only single one ?"

🌟🌟

"Belle ? Hey how are you ?"

"I'm good Leah what about you ?"

"Yeah I'm fine too, uh I wanted to ask if you're coming to the Disney upfront thingy ?"

"The what now ? When is it ?"

"The Disney upfront ?"

"Never heard of it"

"Well it's an amazing carpet and it's may 14th I think" I thought about it letting the date go through my head quickly

"I don't think I'll make it actually, cause of the filming you know"

"Noo don't leave me alone with the boys"

"Are they both going ?"

"Aryan said yes and I haven't asked Walker yet"

"Alright, I really wish I could go Leah, sorry"

"It's okay, enjoy filming"

"Thanks" she hung up and I thought about it for a bit, may 14th. I think I actually had may 14th and 15th off, it would probably be possible for me to go, a little stressful sure but what is life without a little stress "Hey Mo ?"

"Yeah ?"

"Is there anywhere good to buy like a red carpet dress around here ?"

"Oh yeah there are tons of amazing places, why ?"

"I might be going to the Disney upfront carpet, still thinking about it though"

"When's that ?"

"May 14th and I have no filming that day or the day after, maybe I'll just surprise Leah, Walker and Aryan there. I mean I said I couldn't go"

"You just want to see Aryan again"

"Shut up, I haven't seen him in ages"

"Yeah ages, like a month" I hit her arm playfully smiling a little

"We can totally go dress shopping if you decide to go" she said "oh wanna bake cookies ? I really want cookies suddenly and like we could bring it to set tomorrow for the first day of filming, cookies always make amazing first expressions"

"Oh my god yes, let's do like a live while we do that"

We spend over an hour on the live making cookie that tasted amazing

I thought about the event and decided that I would go, because if I already had the days off why not see my favourite people again

I texted Elizabeth checking if she had the time for me, she made the time to do my hair and make up on the 14th

It was gonna be really stressful, an eight hour flight to New York , then having to avoid jet lag with the 3 hours time difference, get ready and head to the event venue, then actually having to find Leah, Walker and Aryan

But after the last month I had I felt like it's completely worth it to just get to hold Aryan

It was also going to be the first carpet as just a couple, with no hiding it which was also kinda scary but amazing

We went to sleep pretty early after being done with the cookies since we had to be on set at 7 am tomorrow and didn't want to seem overtired on the first day
